I remember the first Moon landing like it was yesterday. I feel old.
 
I just noticed the link says Neil Young, not Neil Armstrong. That article is about Neil Armstrong, however.

I read about this when I got up today. I've always been fascintated by the space program and the heroes it has provided. I was very sad to hear Mr. Armstong passed. He was a very vocal supporter of continued space exploration and science in general. There are few men like him left and he will be sorely missed. RIP Neil Armstrong.

Buzz Aldrin however you spell it I think? After Neil got on it, it was of course his partener right? .... I am taking a intellectual guess as you have taken my google powers away

Bonus question: Who didn't get to walk on the Moon during the Apollo 11 mission? (No Googling this either!)

I always knew it as Buzz from school but hey, I spelt it right! All that matters. I was so sure I butchered his last name too.
 
However in my eyes Gagarin and Komarov are my hero's.
